If a team makes a game that gets great reviews and doesn't sell, that's a biz failing but the silver lining is you caught lighting in a bottle -- protect that team! It's worth its weight in gold. If you jettison the team but keep the biz people, I don't know what to tell you

You might be having larks at GDC but I spent the day doing careers talks for high schoolers and one kid asked "Would it not be a better idea to make a famous or successful game?"
Casual reminder that a game having mixed reviews might not mean it's actually bad, it might mean that it's tailored close enough to your personal dream game preferences to actively put other prople off it
